Back to drawing board in Redmond? news.com Now, as the company's legal battle progresses, observers are wondering if Microsoft's strategy of introducing arcane technospeak into a federal hearing was meant to intentionally obfuscate the proceedings--and bamboozle Judge Jackson and the government--or if that was simply the only way the company knew how to present its arguments. "Were they trying to be cute, or was that unintentional? It's hard to tell," said Laura Lederman, an analyst with William Blair & Company who attended this week's hearing. "It's not the type of thing that a federal judge typically sees." In many ways, Microsoft's legal tactics in the case closely mirror its business strategy. That ultimately may prove to be Redmond's downfall. Aw, come on guys, let Microsoft be Microsoft! They're the greatest company in the history of the known universe, how could they possibly explain the incomprehensible complexity of browser/OS integration to mere mortals? Bill wanted a fight, he's going to get one, but it might end up going forward on a few more fronts than he expected. Cheers, Dan.
